Astro-Photographers Capture A UFO Over Darwin On Dashboard Camera

A mysterious light was caught on dash camera streaking across the night sky just south of Darwin in Northern Territory. The video has baffled husband and wife astrophotographers Paul and Sylvia Mayo. They captured the mysterious event on the dash camera near Berrimah when they pulled out of a petrol station.

Initially, they thought nothing about it, but after Mr Mayo had reviewed his computer files, he noticed the bizarre light moving at an incredible speed parallel to the horizon through the night sky.

Mr Mayo said that they have long careers in IT, but never encountered such thing. Their unusual sighting left them baffled. Mr Mayo said that he had seen strange jets throughout 30 years of taking pictures of galaxies and star clusters, but the light they caught on the dash camera hurtling through the night sky was moving a lot faster.

The dash-cam video was taken on June 12, 2015, at 1 am while Mr Mayo’s vehicle was pulling out of a petrol station. The light appeared from nowhere and flew past from the left at a very fast speed.

Mr Mayo studied stills from the video. He zoomed them in and increased the contrast of the light. The effort produced spectacular results.

Mr Mayo said that it appeared to be a string of coloured pearls streaking through the sky. He considered the reflection from the windscreen as the origin of the light, but eventually dismissed the theory because it was moving very fast and there were other reflections shown on the camera.

The strange thing in the video goes along the tree tops in a straight line. Mr Mayo remained open to anyone who could offer him an explanation about the identity of the mysterious light.
